<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jbruce, post: 2556322, member: 76919&quot;][ATTACH=full]550365[/ATTACH] Good morning,</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m new to ancient coins but not new to modern coinage. I bought an Uncleaned crusty lot off EBay several months ago and wanted to learn how to clean ancient coins. I was always a big fan of Roman antiquity and wanted to start off by learning how to clean them. I&#039;ve read a lot online and on this forum, so I kind of got the gist of it. Two months of soaking in Distilled water with a weekly light scrub brought out decent results.</p><p><br /></p><p>One coin in particular was this one which the crust fell off yesterday and noticed it was silver. However the pits were all coming out and there seemed to be copper as well. I looked online and found out about fourees. I wanted to get everyone&#039;s opinion on it. I believe it&#039;s either a Julia Domna or Faustina but it&#039;s hard to tell to an untrained eye. The hair kind of gives it away a bit to the possibility of a woman. The weight is at 4 grams and the size is 18-19mm.</p><p><br /></p><p>Totally different beast when in hand. I created this thread on my phone so hopefully it goes through.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
